Historical PAX Manifest

[beached az]

one from left field..

I'm interested in as passenger manifest circa 1953.

All I know is that airline was UA and the ship was a DC3.

The route was (Given memory drift) was along the lines of;
GLA (ETD 03/Feb/1953)-CYQX-EWR-SFO-NFFN-AKL.
(never flown a DC3 but NFFN-AKL seems like a bit of a stretch endurance wise??, could have gone via Hawai??)

Is there any way of finding a manifest going back that far.
United don't keep records going back that far.


Appreciate any info.
